Time for a Bathe, Sorolla

This painting is part of the classic series where the artist portrayed a variety of characters in everyday situations, always around the Valencian coast.

A girl dressed in pink entering the beach, under the watchful eye of her caretaker, who is holding a baby in her arms.

Sorolla had a special predilection for painting children, and an astonishing ability and mastery in representing reflections on the wet sand, garments mixed with shadows and sunlight. This is one of the works where the most elements that the painter managed at his will combine.
